Description
18" (46 cm.) Bisque socket head, blue glass sleep eyes with darker blue iris rims, dark eyeliner, painted lashes, brushstroked brows with feathered brows, accented nostrils and eye corners, closed mouth with pertly-shaped small outlined lips, composition and wooden fully-jointed body with straight wrists, antique costume. Condition: generally excellent. Marks: 192. Comments: Kammer and Reinhardt, circa 1892, the model was registered by the firm in that year; it is unknown who actually produced the bisque heads for Kammer and Reinhardt during this era, but its close resemblance to Kestner suggests that firm as firm as a possible source. Value Points: hard-to-find model with beautifully-painted brows and lips, original early body.
